In my Apex Code I have Default Start time and Default End Time named as start and stop, code as follows
 time start = time.newInstance(8,30,0,0);
 time stop = time.newInstance(17,0,0,0);

and I am getting start time and endtime from Object [field type DateTime] from that i am getting only time in Starttime and Endtime, code as follows

time Starttime = Time.newInstance(SSJ.Start_Date_and_Time__c.hour(),SSJ.Start_Date_and_Time__c.minute(),SSJ.Start_Date_and_Time__c.second(),SSJ.Start_Date_and_Time__c.millisecond());

 time Endtime = Time.newInstance(SSJ.End_Date_and_Time__c.hour(),SSJ.End_Date_and_Time__c.minute(),SSJ.End_Date_and_Time__c.second(),SSJ.End_Date_and_Time__c.millisecond());

Now i want to find the difference between
Stop to Starttime and
Start to Endtime . how to calculate this?

Thanks and Regards

What is the trigger.newmap and trigger.oldmap and when to use these two in triggers? can anyone share me the answer for this in detail?

Well, all I can say is that it does add an account, and if you send it a blank string, it does return a NULL, so I am wondering what I did wrong. Here is the code:

public class AccountHandler {

    public static ID  insertNewAccount(String myStr) {
        try {
            Account acct = new Account(Name=myStr);
            insert acct;
            
            return(acct.id);
            
        } catch (DmlException e) {
            System.debug('A DML exception has occurred:' + e.getMessage());
            return(NULL);
        }
        
    }
            
}

Thanks in advance for the help,

I am new to salesforce and I want to connect to the salesforce database from my custom .NET Application and not via salesforce.com. How can this be made possible? How do I get started?

Hi,

I have a post install script. All I want to do is add a record to a custom object (which comes with the package). In the record that i want to add automatically, I want to get details from the logged in User, and generate a random number.

After install I get the following error.

Unexpected Error	 	The package installation failed. Please provide the following information to the publisher:

Organization Name: xx
Organization ID: xx
Package: xx
Version: 1.0
Error Message: The post install script failed.

What am I doing wrong here? Please help. Thanks in advance.

Below given is my Post Install code
 

global class PostInstallClass implements InstallHandler {
    global void onInstall(InstallContext context) {
        if(context.previousVersion() == null) {
            string userEmail = UserInfo.getUserEmail();
            string firstName = UserInfo.getFirstName();
            string lastName  = UserInfo.getLastName();
            string orgName   = UserInfo.getOrganizationName();
            string recName  = 'MyRec1';
            string uniqueId   = generateRandomString(40);
            
           MyCustomObject__c c = new MyCustomObject__c(UniqueID = uniqueId, Your_Company__c = orgName, Name = recName, First_Name__c = firstName, Last_Name__c = lastName, Email__c = userEmail);
            insert c;
       }
    }

public static String generateRandomString(Integer len) {
        final String chars = 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz';
        String randStr = '';
        while (randStr.length() < len) {
           Integer idx = Math.mod(Math.abs(Crypto.getRandomInteger()), 62);
           randStr += chars.substring(idx, idx+1);
        }
        return randStr;
    }

}

I am having problems with this query, which I believe to be similar to the second basic one.

SELECT Order_Value__C
    ( SELECT Warehouse__C FROM Order_Detail__C )    FROM Order_header__c

I assume the relationship here is the same?
SELECT Id, Name, Industry, AnnualRevenue,
    ( SELECT Name, Email, BirthDate FROM Contacts )    FROM Account

It says

MALFORMED_QUERY:
( SELECT Warehouse__C FROM Order_Detail__C
^ ERROR at Row:2:Column:6
unexpected token: 'SELECT'

In our System API Name Order_Details__c show
Field Label Order Header
API NAME Order_Header__c
Data Type Master-Detail(Sales Order) 

I assume the relationship would be the same and it would work?

Individually both of these work
This works SELECT Order_Value__C FROM Order_header__c
This works SELECT Warehouse__C FROM ORDER_Detail__C

I have a picklist with 4 text values. I want to assign a numeric value to each text value. I then want to multiply the chosen value by a number field.  Can anyone help me with the syntax?  

Picklist field = Plan_object__c
Picklist Values = Low,High,Medium,None
Number Field = R_Complex__c 

Do I need a developer for these type of integrations?

I want to compare two list in which values are stored in a different order . I am inserting the list into different maps . how to compare that the data in list 1 is present in list 2.

I am going through the Trailhead lessons and for some reason am hung up on this one.  The test is to:
Create a Visualforce page that displays the first name of the logged-in user.
* The page must be named 'myHelloWorldVF'.
* The displayed user information must be generated dynamically from the logged-in user.

The code I have for this is:
<apex:page >
    {! $User.FirstName}
</apex:page>

For some reason Trailhead keeps coming back with the error:
The Visualforce page did not fit the criteria. The first name of the logged in user was not output using dynamic global variables.

Can anyone give insight into what I am doing wrong?  Not looking for the answer, just guidence in what needs to be looked at.

Thanks!

There appears to be a bug in Visualforce where inputField defaults do not display if the field is initially hidden and then a rerender displays the field.  If the field is initially visible then the default value is displayed on page load and after a rerender.  I have tested this on the latest API (32.0) and have a simple page example below that can be used to try to reproduce the issue.  In the code example below, the TrackingNumber__c field on opportunity has a default formula value of $User.LastName.  When you click the refresh button it will set a boolean flag (show) which will cause the inputfield to be displayed after the rerender completes.  If you remove the rendered attribute hiding the inputfield you will notice that the field default does display correctly even if you hit the refresh button.

<apex:page standardcontroller="opportunity" extensions="testoppextension">
    
    <apex:form id="frm">

        <apex:inputField value="{!opportunity.TrackingNumber__c}" rendered="{!show}"/>
        
        <apex:commandButton value="refresh" action="{!refresh}" rerender="frm"/>
        
    </apex:form>
    
</apex:page>

public class testoppextension {

    public boolean show {get;set;}
    
    public testoppextension(ApexPages.StandardController std){
        show = false;
    }
    
    public void refresh(){
        show = true;
    }
}

Hello, I'm trying to do the Using Simple Variables and Formulas challenge from Intro to Programmatic App Development. Is asking for:
Create a Visualforce page that displays the first name of the logged-in user.
I created a VF page named as is requested, with the following code:
<apex:page>
    {! $User.FirstName } 
</apex:page>
But when trying to check the challenge, I get the error:
Challenge not yet complete... here's what's wrong: 
The Visualforce page did not fit the criteria. The first name of the logged in user was not output using dynamic global variables.

What am I doing wrong?
Thank you!

Am I the only one that gets error on Unit 1.  It's something simple and I get the error of 'Set Case to Escalated' worflow update field is missing... which is not, it's already there.

Cheers

 

Hey community,

I'm struggling with the logic of the task...

To complete this challenge, add a validation rule which will block the insertion of a contact if the contact is related to an account and has a mailing postal code (which has the API Name MailingPostalCode) different from the account's shipping postal code (which has the API Name ShippingPostalCode).Name the validation rule 'Contact must be in Account ZIP Code'.

A contact with a MailingPostalCode that has an account and does not match the associated Account ShippingPostalCode should return with a validation error and not be inserted.

The validation rule should ONLY apply to contact records with an associated account. Contact records with no associated parent account can be added with any MailingPostalCode value. (Hint: you can use the ISBLANK function for this check)

Here is what I got so far:

AND(
 NOT(ISBLANK(MailingPostalCode)),
 MailingPostalCode  <>  Account.ShippingPostalCode )

I THINK I know how to see if the contact mailing zip is not the same as the account shipping zip, and only if the is not blank.

The part I am stuck on is if the "Contact records with no associated parent account can be added with any MaiilingPostalCode value"...

I don't know what to do with that.

Also, I am now getting the error message when I recheck challenge:

Challenge not yet complete... here's what's wrong: 
There was an unexpected error in your org which is preventing this assessment check from completing: System.DmlException: Insert failed. First exception on row 0; first error: FIELD_CUSTOM_VALIDATION_EXCEPTION, Contact_must_be_in_Account_ZIP_Code: [] 

Double help, please.

The first challangeof this Superbadge seems to be problematic, showing the following message:
Challenge Not yet complete... here's what's wrong:
We could not find enough records in the 'Contacts' object. There should be at least 100 from the import.
What is interesting is that everything seems complete to me! I have inserted 100 contacts and 100 accounts, and of course all other items (Opportunities and Contact Hobbies).

Any idea why I see this error message?

I have accounts in Salesforce that have a field that contains the ID of that same account in our Oracle ERP system.

I would like to be able to import Service Contracts and tie them to the correct account, but the only information that I have available to me in the extract from Oracle is the Oracle ID, not the Salesforce Id.

Is there a way to accomplish this? (I want to automate this, so getting the Salesforce ID and performing Vlookups, etc. isn't a workable solution).

Thanks for any help!!

This challenge seems simple enough but I'm stuck and any help would be appreciated. 

So the Challenge is Create a validation rule to check that a contact is in the zip code of its account. here is the question below:
